Wenger focused on Ipswich clash

Arsene Wenger has urged his Arsenal players to put thoughts of a quadruple out of their mind to focus on beating Ipswich in the Carling Cup.

The Gunners trail 1-0 from the first leg of their semi-final in Suffolk a fortnight ago, but are favourites to overturn that deficit to stay on course for what would be a first trophy in six seasons.

They are in fact the only remaining team still in with a shout of winning all four competitions - they are second in the Premier League, in the Champions League last 16 and into the FA Cup fourth round - but Wenger knows anything other than 100 per cent concentration against Ipswich will see those hopes come to an abrupt end.

"To go to the final we need to produce a very good game tomorrow night and that is what I am focused on. What it means or not in my head is not important at all," he said.
